Lets the DOJ bring civil suits on behalf of copyright owners. (Link goes to 
text of bill):

I especially enjoy the thought of the DOJ having a division that "(employs 
and leverages) the expertise of technical experts in computer forensics; 
(and) (F) collects and preserves) electronic data in a forensically sound 
manner for use in court proceedings".  I wonder how far 2 million dollars 
will get them in one year.
